On-call tonight for CAMHS - no suitable mental health bed available within 80 miles for young male patient on a medical ward - this is the reality of acute mental health services for young people - Christmas 2017. https://t.co/wJ5kXl4GVN
���Patients should only be sent away from their local area for care if it is in their best interests or in exceptional circumstances" - Dr Ranga Rao comments on out of area placements, in the @Independent https://t.co/VoNkq9Yl5F
Delighted to see that #MindTech AQUA trial evaluation #QbTest has provided pivotal evidence to support #NICE recommendations for digital technology in the assessment and diagnosis of #ADHD in children and young people https://t.co/BcmlhiI4a0
This week we submitted written evidence to the UK government in response to a call for evidence on #screentime and its impact on education and wellbeing. 📱
@Livingstone_S led our response and outlines here in a short blog ➡️ https://t.co/nRbPAX0rdo

Brilliant to have so many of our amazing @mrcdigitalyouth team together this week for our autumn Huddle, including some of our wonderful YPAG Sprouting Minds. Exciting findings emerging and as always, so much collective energy being channelled in the best way! @MindTech_Doc 🧠🌱
Could playing online games improve mental health services for young people?
Great to see @mrcdigitalyouth SPARX team in the news this week 🤩

MindTech is now 10 years old. Our aim is to support bodies like @NICEComms and bridge the gap between clinical domain and treatments for patients using digital media #RCPsychIC@MindTech_Doc
@rcpsych@NICEComms Delighted to be presenting ‘Digital Mental Healthcare: The Good, the Bad and the Ugly’ at #RCPsychIC23 today - opening the policy debate on the risks of outsourcing digital mental health services vs. NHS enabled digital mental healthcare @NIHR_MindTech
Many of the 1600 psychiatrists registered for @rcpsych #ICRCPsych2023 are here for today’s first keynote listening to @MindTech_Doc talking about the importance of tech in delivering online gamified and virtual therapies @NIHRresearch
Very few tic therapists in the UK. So almost impossible for young people to get therapy for their tics. Which is where technology can help with the model: Orbit #RCPsychIC
From ORBIT(online CBT for Tics), https://t.co/bpGzLSsGhu for ADHD assessment , gaming for anxiety and VR for psychosis at Oxford - tech has multiple applications for reducing time to treatment and improving care. #RCPsychIC#RCPsychIC23@MindTech_Doc
@NIHR_MindTech@MindTech_Doc#RCPsychIC
Too much expectations and hype in the digital health field.
Evidence not always translates clinically.
Risk of fragmentation of NHS care with different providers.
@QbtechADHD is now more widely used.
Interesting presentation by @MindTech_Doc on the role of Mindtech in developing the evidence base for digital mental health apps. Must ensure that we also consider the potential proliferation of standalone apps & the risk of exacerbating data silos...

Really fantastic to have lots of our researchers, young people and @mrcdigitalyouth team all together this week to share progress, ideas and plans. @MindTech_Doc@SelfHarmRes 🤩🧠🌱✨
I'll be talking about the many barriers parents face when their children are struggling with anxiety problems and some our recent work to try to come up with some solutions
